Testimonials

I lived in Costa Rica for many years and left part of my heart in beautiful Guanacaste. Partnering with the Guanacaste Community Fund through Amigos of Costa Rica allows me to support local organizations such as Costas Verdes and to ensure they have the resources to make a difference.

Anne LangerakGreenbelt, MD - Amigos of Costa Rica Donor

Amigos of Costa Rica provides Harmony Fund and the Atlantic Foundation with the ability to expand impact through an important partnership with the Guanacaste Community Fund. This partnership provides us with an on-the-ground perspective, proper due diligence, and supplemental strategic thinking so that our grant making not simply makes an impact in its own right but is leveraged innovatively to support and expand on other efforts and local strategies.

My husband and I live in the USA and while traveling to Costa Rica had the opportunity to get involved with Amigos of Costa Rica and the work they do thru Creciendo Juntos. We are so honored and gratified to be a part of the ongoing work in Costa Rica and look forward to the newsletters to hear of all the good things this organization is doing. What a blessing they are to so many.
